Aged Resident Of Danby Passes

Death Of Richard Towner Occurs Two Days After Burial Of Wife.

Richard Towner died early Monday morning at the home of his niece, Mrs. Archie 
Brady in Danby township, following an illness with pneumonia.  His wife, 
Millie, died at the Brady home of the same disease on Tuesday of last week and 
was buried Saturday just two days previous to her husband’s death.

Mr. Towner was 80 years of age and had spent his entire lifetime in Danby 
township and the past 46 years on his farm one-half mile east of the Compton 
schoolhouse, where funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon.  Interment was 
made in Danby cemetery beside the freshly made grave of his wife.

Surviving are two sisters, Mrs. Rose Boughner, of Danby, and Mrs. Alice 
Crowley, of St. Johns, and one brother, Fred Towner, living on the old 
homestead in Danby.  Thomas Towner, who died in October 1935, was also a 
brother.
